Patrick Mahomes Tops Ranking of the 2024 Super Bowl Rosters
There will be plenty of star power on display when the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs collide Sunday for Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas.
We thought it would be a fun exercise to rank the players from the Chiefs’ and 49ers’ active rosters, generating a list of 106 players. (We also added a few players who are currently on injured reserve with a chance to play at Allegiant Stadium.)
At first, this list was easy to form because there are about a dozen players who are regarded by many as the best player at their respective position. (Yes, Patrick Mahomes is No. 1. That’s not a spoiler.) But the debates quickly picked up with many Pro Bowl-caliber players through the top 30.

It wasn’t easy deciding between 49ers wide receivers Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk. The same for Chiefs cornerbacks Trent McDuffie and L’Jarius Sneed.
What about Brock Purdy? Again, this will be fun, and yeah, somewhat controversial. Here’s the list, from No. 1 to 106.
